Earth Day 2011 Presentation
|
Please join us for an Earth Day presentation. Richard Louv, author of "LAST CHILD IN THE WOODS: Saving Our Children From Nature-Deficit Disorder" will give a presentation at 7pm on Friday, April 15th in 0C307 Science and Technology Building. "LAST CHILD IN THE WOODS " has stimulated an international conversation about the relationship between children and nature. Louv coined the term Nature-Deficit Disorder® which has become the defining phrase of this important issue. He will sign books following his presentation, and books will be available for sale including a new book he is releasing that week entitled "THE NATURE PRINCIPLE, HUMAN RESTORATION AND THE END OF NATURE-DEFICIT DISORDER". |
